Suicide bombers attack Sinai peacekeeping base

Two suicide bombers on foot struck just outside a multinational peacekeeping forces base just south of the Rafa border crossing to Gaza today.

At least one New Zealander and one Norwegian attached to the multinational force as well as two Egyptian policemen were wounded, security officials and Egypt’s official news agency reported.

The attackers hit just two days after a triple bombing that killed 24 at Egypt’s Sinai resort city of Dahab on the Gulf of Aqaba.
